Trump’s DC takeover is a surprisingly hypocritical move | Rebecca Solnit

tHis most violent day in Washington, D.C. history, left behind the war of 1812, was January 6, 2021. The agitator was Donald J Trump, who had worked to seize control of the nation’s capital this week, after reports that a former employee of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) (DOGE) was attacked in the city.

In a sense, new events reverberate old events. Both are illegal power grabs based on lies. In 2021, this is a lie about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. In the summer of 2025, it’s a lie about the level of crime. Reliable sources – including Biden’s Justice Department January – Note the violent crime there at a 30-year low. Five people were killed in 2021 attacks on Congress, dozens of law enforcement officers were injured, and some were seriously incited by Trump. On his first day in office in 2025, he pardoned 1,500 convicted criminals stormed into the capital, some of whom continued to commit more crimes.

Hypocrisy is obvious, or most discussions about contemporary events are not so modern that events before last month were excluded. Of course hypocrisy and double standards are key elements of the right-wing commitment to inequality, and even if it undermines bones and laws, their violence imposes their version of order. As Wilhoit’s law says: “Conservatism consists entirely of a proposition, wisdom: there must be legal protection, but no group protection for groups bound by but not protected by the law.”

The former threshold employee to be attacked was 19-year-old Edward Coristine, also known as Big Ball. As long as we talk about violence, this spring’s medical journal is the Lancet Estimated Doge’s demolition of USAID could result in more than 1,400 deaths, one-third of the children, by 2030. When it comes to pure numbers, it’s like killing everyone in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago, or if you prefer everyone in Denmark, Norway and Estonia, but these deaths suffered from illness, malnutrition and hunger, inexplicably, hunger and hunger will be far away. Of course, this year the United States also exhibited direct violence exhibited by the Trump administration in the United States, including the mother being worn by an armed man in a mask while immigrants in El Salvador were treated cruelly.

An attempt to take over the right-wing and authoritarian agenda in many ways. Modern conservatives like to hate cities because cities are places where diversity and inclusion thrive, immigrants, many races, queer and trans, non-constitutionalists, bohemians, independent women and progressive groups tend to focus. The political map of the United States mainly shows a blue island archipelago in a red ocean, which are blue because they are also strongholds of democracy.

They are an election threat to the right people because they It is a breeding ground for tolerance and cultural, religious, racial and sexual diversity, with the majority of immigrants having a high population. By thriving, they refuted the right-wing theory that if these things are allowed, all hell will break. But it is even more interesting to pretend that these cities are dangerous rights, because they are the filth of crime and depravity.

The concept of out-of-control in urban or ethnic communities or progressive movements proves that in the name of controlling them, severe enforcement and violation of rights. In other words, this justifies authoritarianism, which claims to protect some of us when attacking many of us. Recently, so has the same part of the right-wing discourse. Adult men claim to be afraid to walk on the streets of American cities. Conservative tech guys would claim to be afraid to stroll here when my town San Francisco was demonized by the right wing and some mainstream media over the years, which is surprisingly fragile and cowardly to the average city dweller.

Don’t surpass Senator Markwayne Mullin Announce On Wednesday night, Fox News won’t wear a seat belt while driving through DC, so if he’s hijacked, he can rush to run away.

Authoritarians are fighting cities because they are fighting our rights and our diversity. We all deserve to defend them – cities, rights, diversity, including the lies and propaganda that this weapon itself is the weapon in this war. Of course, Trump made up a drama in the District of Columbia and the National Guard turned into a series of extra dramas because when it comes to violent crime, he hopes we really stop talking about it.
